Message: [QUOTE="nzm136, post: 3610665, member: 2531"] This is very true. I get why he went with McF. He needed a big recruiter to pull in talent, as that clearly wasn’t DM’s strength. But Lester was actually a good OC in retrospect, and I truly believe he would have pulled to O out if given time. SS had a bad defense his final (3rd lol) year, but he can unquestionably field a good defensive team, and, when given an opportunity to focus, he can make excellent in game adjustments on the defensive side of the ball. Had Lester built a decent offense, and had the defense reverted to a normal SS defense, we would have been pretty good. I can’t help but think that better facilities and time to cycle through some weak position coaches would not have tangibly improved recruiting, too. I also got the feeling that SS was Coach P-level loyal. One bad OC hire could have cost SU FB dearly. [/QUOTE]
